| Naming Notes | When we were brainstorming names, we were very hungry, as our lab time is during the lunch hour. We first thought of a nice peanut butter and jelly sandwich, like an Uncrustable. Mmm. Then, we thought of hotdogs and the different toppings, which gave us the idea of Relish. For our phage, we thought that Relish might be a better name than Uncrustable. The rest is history. |

| Plaque Notes | Relish formed a variety of circular plaques that had a clear center and were surrounded by a cloudy halo. Plaques from Relish ranged from 1mm to 10mm throughout the process. The range of plaque sizes for Relish would normally suggest more than one type of phage in the population, however, later experiments showed that it is a single, clonal phage population. |
